land preservation, TDRs, limiting the exemption to 10 lots, and retention of ownership.
Commissioners authorized the Department of Land Use and Growth Management to start
the text amendment process on this matter. The Commissioners would like to look at the
number ten for lots in order to determine whether or not that number is appropriate, and
they would like to further discuss and debate the issues of retention of ownership. (Note:

hearing)

PUBLIC HEARING: PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE COMPREHENSIVE
ZONING ORDINANCE TEXT REGARDING OFFICE AND BUSINESS PARKS
(OBP ZONE) – RESIDENTIAL USES, DMX ZONE
Present: Denis Canavan, Director, Land Use and Growth Management
Jeff Jackman, Senior Planner
A public hearing regarding proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance text regarding Office and Business Parks Zone (OBP), Residential Uses, and
Downtown Mixed Use Zone (DMX) was conducted. The public hearing was legally
advertised on May 4th and May 11th, 2005 in The Enterprise newspaper. Staff provided
background, findings, and also the recommendations submitted by the Planning
Commission which are further are outlined in the staff report dated May 19, 2005. A
map of the area primarily discussed was reviewed, and was referred to as “The Wedge”,
which is the area outlined in the 1999 Lexington Park/Tulagi Place Master Plan.
Discussion included concern that the 49%-51% component may not be the right mix, that
the amendments would not apply to all OBP Zones, home occupations would be allowed
in some areas and not others, and the potential for an overwhelming increase in town
homes in the OBP.
The Commissioner President opened the public hearing for testimony, with the following
individuals speaking:
Dr. Kristen Sheeran, 43244 Gum Spring Drive, Leonardtown – Dr. Sheeran is an
economist at St. Mary’s College, and closely follows land use issues of the county.
Outlined concern that the county does nothing to create incentives to increase TDRs and
asked Commissioners to listen carefully to the comments/recommendations of the Task
Force. Outlined ways to create TDR demand by creating incentives and making it too
difficult and/or expensive to develop in those areas.
Larry Day, Piney Point – Cannot stop growth, but we can work together to control
growth. Encouraged Commissioners to listen to the Task Force recommendations.
Stated that the Development District is the most expensive to develop and outlined his
reasoning for this.
Bill McKissick, Dugan, McKissick, Wood, & Longmore – Stated that the county needs to
encourage development toward the south. RMX at 5 units per acre will not work, and ten
encourages developers to go to a higher density development and then TDR’s do get
utilized. RL district already allows ten. Asked Commissioners to develop incentives to
encourage development in the Development District.
John Parlett, CMI, 29962 Killpeck, Charlotte Hall – Endorses Bill McKissick’s remarks
re 49% and ten units per acre as a base density. The Development District is some of the
most expensive property in the county, and single family residential building is not
economically feasible. With only eight town homes per acres, won’t have too many town
homes. Outlined numerous issues that he previously outlined to the Planning
Commission that were not in the recommendation, including: educational facilities
should be permitted as long as not in the AICUZ; maintenance & repair services minor –
include; #64 personal mini-storage – include due to many apartments & higher density
homes; #68 recreational facility minor – include, such as gym or pool in condo buildings;
#77 – restaurant or tavern – include small facilities; #78 & 79 – warehouses not included
- look at Bradley Blvd warehouse which is 60,000 sq. ft. and was needed for storage for
the Navy base; maximum footprint of the building in the OBP – need to encourage larger
as we want jobs here; need to provide incentives to build in the Development District and
disincentives to go into the RPD. Chamber of Commerce is ready to help with this
process so that it can move forward.
Linda Vallandingham, 21705 Indian Bridge Road, California – Need to create a demand
for TDRs. Asked if adequate public facilities considered and the impact caused to roads
and schools. Reduce to five or less.
Joseph Wood, 39136 Avie Lane, Mechanicsville, President, St. Mary’s County Farm
Bureau – Endorses TDRs, and the plan by the Chamber of Commerce for use of TDRs in
the RPD, although not the best plan, it is good. Stated that changing the density without a
TDR won’t work, and there is
a need to create a market for TDRs. Need to embrace TDRs not as an expense, but a
preservation effort.
Bubby Norris, 26678 Hurry Road, Chaptico – Worked with team to develop the TDR
proposal, and a plan needs to be developed to encourage TDRs; thinks five would be
adequate. Sees no reason to limit the numbers developed in OBP as it is addressed in
other areas. (Submitted letter from Agricultural Commission for the record)
Robert Jarboe, 20040 Pear Hill Road, Leonardtown – Stated that we need the TDR
program, and that he agrees with the first speaker’s points.
Donald Strickland – 46033 Strickland Road, Great Mills – In support of the TDR
program, and agrees with Mr. Parlett’s comments and also the Chamber of Commerce.
He wants land to be preserved, and suggests maybe moving the TDR limit up to test it
out.
Guy Curley, 22501 Iverson Drive, Great Mills – In support of the OBP legislation as
submitted. Agrees also with Mr. Day and Mr. Parlett. Folks prefer to live, work, and
play in the same area. To penalize for building at the highest density is not right. There
may be a way to scale TDRs or phase TDRs. Contracts of sale on properties need to
outline what is or is not allowed. Believes the mix of 49 & 51 will work.
Commissioner President McKay closed the public hearing as there were no other
speakers present. The matter will remain open for a period of ten days, and will then be
placed on an agenda for discussion and a final decision.
Commissioners requested the following - LUGM to include in Public comments - 1)
written comments by Joe Densford, 2) Nancy McAllister written comments, 3)
Agricultural Commission written comments, 4) Commissioner Raley asked for a
memo/report from DECD in regards to the 49%-51% issue, & 5) Commissioner
Mattingly would like a copy of the video of the two or three Planning Commission
hearings where the portion of hearing(s) pertain to this issue.
PUBLIC HEARING: PROPOSED REALIGNMENT OF BROWN ROAD,
COUNTY ROUTE 30224
Present: George Erichsen, Director
Mr. Erichsen read the Notice of Public Hearing, reporting that advertisement for the
public hearing occurred in The Enterprise newspaper on May 13 and May 20, 2005. A
draft Resolution was presented which would allow for the realignment of Brown Road,
County Route 30224. The primary purpose for the road realignment is that of safety,
both horizontally and diagonally.
Brown Road is located in the third election district, in accordance with frontage
improvement requirements per Section 6.9 of the St. Mary’s County Road Ordinance No.
76-7 as amended, related to the development of Forrest Farm Subdivision, Section 3,
Phase 5. The length of realignment is approximately 1,076 feet fronting the Forrest
Farm Subdivision. There would be no cost to the
county and the developer has posted bonds for work via a Construction Permit in the
amount of $85,000 and a Grading Permit in the amount of $12,000. The project would
be done over the summer and would be completed prior to the beginning of school.
The Commissioner President opened the public hearing for testimony, with the following
individuals speaking:
Cheri Taylor, 42840 Lytle Lane, Leonardtown – Outlined problems with a sand and
gravel business which is located on Indian Bridge Road, as Brown Road is not wide or
safe enough for their trucks to travel. The license for the business to do this was
discontinued. Ms. Taylor is concerned that repairing turns on Brown Road would allow
the sand and gravel business to regain the license and travel the road. Also, a notice was
posted on one end of the road, and not the other, and some people living on the road only
normally go out one end, and would have missed the posted notice.
Deanna Norris, 42843 Jetson Lane, Hollywood – Stated that realigning the road will open
a race track on Brown Road and that her son was nearly hit once. She stated that she has
a runoff problem with a pond and is afraid her road will be washed out after the
realignment. Also stated that in the morning and evening it’s very hard to get in and out
of her driveway, and this might make it worse.
Commissioners asked DPW&T to look into drainage issues outlined by Ms. Norris and to
provide follow up regarding the matter to the Commissioners.
Commissioner President McKay closed the public hearing as no one else was present to
speak. The record will remain open for written public comment for ten days, and will
then be placed on an agenda of the Board of County Commissioners for
discussion/decision.
